A green microwave procedure was developed to synthesize highly surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) active silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with a resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 450 nm, and a new SERS enhancement mechanism was proposed.

Cr(VI); dithiothreitol; Nanogold; Resonance Rayleigh scattering spectral assay. Abstract. Nanogold (NG) in size of 15 nm was prepared by sodium citrate procedure, and it was modified by 1,4-dithiothreitol (DTT) to form NG-DTT probe for Cr(VI). In diluted H2SO4 medium, the probe interacted with Cr(VI) to form big NG clusters that led to the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RS) peak at 720 nm increased greatly. Under the selected conditions, the increased RS intensity (ΔI720nm) is linear to Cr(VI) concentration in the range of 10-50 nmol/L, with a regression equation of ΔI720nm= 2.05 C-7.5, coefficient of 0.9989, and a detection limit of 5 nmol/L. This nanogold RS method was applied to determination of Cr(VI) in waste water samples, with satisfactory results.

In HCl solution, the Se (IV) was reduced to SeH2 by NaBH4, and absorbed by solution of ethanol-AgNO3. The Ag+ was reduced to nanosilver, which led to the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 366 nm increased. Under the selected conditions, the RRS intensity at 366 nm was linear to the concentration of Se (IV) in the range of 0.05-2.0 μg/mL, a detection limit of 0.02 μg/mL. The proposed method was applied to detect Se (IV) in water samples, with satisfactory results.

There are strong forces between phenylenediamine (PPD) and nanogold particle (AuNP) that make the AuNPs aggregation and exhibit a strong resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 368 nm. When there is NO2-, it reacts with PPD to generate an azo compound. However, there is weak force between AuNP and the azo compound that can’t make the AuNPs aggregation. When concentration of NO2- increased, the AuNP aggregations become weak that led the RRS peak to decrease. The decreased RRS intensity is linear to NO2-concentration in the range of 1-25 μmol/L. This method was applied to analysis of water samples with simplicity.

1, 4-dithiothreitol (DTT) combined with nanogold (AuNP) to form the DTT-AuNP probe in the solution of 1.0 mmol/L H2SO4. In the presence of Fe3+, the DTT-AuNPs aggregated to big particles that exhibited a maximum Resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) peak at 770 nm. Under the chosen conditions, the increased intensity was linear to Fe3+ concentration in the range of 7.3-149.5µg/L, with the regression equation of ΔI770nm = 127.5C +11.2, the correlation coefficient of 0.9954 and the detection limit of 3.75 ug/L Fe3+. The proposed method was applied to detect trace Fe3+ in water samples, with satisfactory results.
